storms of trial have showered imperisha-
ole pearl into many young mans lap.
0, young man, while you have goods to
sell remember you have a soul to save.
In hospital Christian captain, wounded
a few days before, got delirOus, and in
the midnight hour ne sprang out on the
floor of the no -pital, thinking ne was in
the battle, crying: "COme on, boys! For
wardl Cnsrge!" All! he was only bst-
Ting the specters OF his own brain. But
it is no imaginary conflict into which l
call you, young man, to-day. There are
10000 spiritual foes that would capture
you. In the name of God up and at them.
After the last store has been closed,
after the last bank has gone down, after
the last shuttle of the quick feet on the
custom house step has stopped, after the
long line of merchantmen on the sea have
taken sail of fame, after Brooklyn, and
New York, and London, and Vienna,
have gone down into the grave where
Thebes, and Babylon, and Tyre lay
buried; after the great fire bells of the
Judgment day have tOlled at the burning
of & world on that day, all the affairs OF
banking houses and stores will come up
for inspection. On, what an opening of
account books! Side by side, the clerks
and the men who employed them, the
people who owned thread and needle
stores on the same footing with the
Stewards, the DelanOs, and the AbbOtts,
and the Bariugs. Every invoice made
out, all the labels of goods, all certificates
of stock, all lists of prices, ell private
marks of the firm, now explained so
everybody can understand them. All the
maps of cities that were never built
but in which lots were sold, all bargains,
all gOugings, all snap judgments, all
false entries, all aduIteration of liquors
with copperas and strychnine, all mixing
of teas, and sugars, and coffees,
aud syrupS with cheaper mate
rial, ell embellishments of trust
funds. All sWindles in coal, and iron,
and oil, and silver, and stocks. All
Swartouts, and Huntingtons, and Ketcn-
ums. On that day, when the cities of
this world are smoking in the last cOph9-
grafton, the trial will go on, and down in
an avalanche Of destruction will go those
who wronged man or woman, insulted
God and defed the Judgment. Oh. that
will be a great day for you, honest
Christian clerk. No getting up early; no
retiring late; no walking around with
weary limbs; but mansion in which to
live, and realm of light, and love, and
Joy over which to hold everlasting do
miniOn. Hoist him up from glory to
glory, and from song to song, and from
throne to throne; for while others go
down into the sea with their gold like a
milestone hanging to their necks, this
one shall come up the heights of anne
thyst and alabaster, holding in his right
hand the pearl of great price in spark
ling, glittering, flaming casket.

The Parnell letter.

a dispatch from Lincoln, Neb., says that
John Fitzgerald, president; OF the Irish Ma
tional League of America, recently submit
ted the London Times fac-simile of the
alleged Parnel letter, together with docu-
ments in possession Of Patrick Egan, in The
handwriting of Richard Pigott, formerly
proprietor of the Dublin irishmaa, to com
mttee consisting of Governor Thayer,
Treasurer Williad, Auditor Babcock, Mayor
Sawyer, Postmaster Watkins and the cash
iers of the city banks. Yesterday the com
miltee reported as follows We, The under
signed, have, at the request OF John fl'Z,
gerald, president of the Irish National
League of America, carefully examined the
fac-simile published in the London Times OF
the 18th uit., alleged to have been written
by Hon. Charles s. Parpell also letters sign
ed Richard Pigott, addressed to Mr.. Patrick
Eagan, dated June 25th, 1875, December 9th
and 22d, 1880, January 18th, 1881, and
March 9th, 1881; also an Enclosure contained
in said letter of March 9th, 1881. and we
have no hesitation in saying that the alleged
fac simile and the said letters and inclOsure
were written by the same hand The docu
ments referred TO were letters from Iigott,
wherein he tried TO black tnai the League
through its treasurer, under the pretence ne
had been offered five hundred shiilings by
alleged agents of Dublin Castle to pub
lish fictitious articles in relation TO the
League fund prepared for the purpose OF
discrediting the League, and the letter to
him from these agents, which he inclosed MS
proof of his statement. In his letter to the
treasurer Of the League, Pigott said he was
on the verge of financial ruin and must have
money. He would suppress he Dublin
Castle article, however, if the League would
make him temporary loan of three hun
dred shilings These letters and fac simile
of Parnell's alleged letter, the committee
above named believe to be in the hand
writing of the same man.

The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper r
the State, and with few exceptions the old
est in the country, and its usefulness has
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY. SEVEN YEARS Gifts existence. In
its columns has always been found mirror
ofpassng events, and the careful chron
cling of the history ofwhatis going on in the
world has ever been its aim. II is always
welcomed i'll the household, while in the
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for oh.
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is so close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis
patches from every part ofthe world hence
Its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion of our own domain as well ss
from every part of the habitable globe.
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE n great desideratum with mer
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
in and near the city, and this feature will,
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of theState, is pub.
lshed regularly, and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com
monwealth are to lie found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzETTE's circulation is steadily il
oreasing, especially among people who con
suit its advertising columns before purchas
ne. That this is selfevident may be infer
ed from the fact that large country edi-
'ion-nearly as large as the daily-~is sent
Nj over this section OF country three tines
week, and is read by thousands, most OF
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of ad-
1ertisng in the GAZETTE are. therefore, ap-
larent.
